Chapter 196: Night Talk

"How's that?

"Great... Awesome"

In the mansion, Ariel was quite proud on her face, and quickly turned the chopsticks in her hand, two slender black bamboos shook out layers of phantom shadows at the flexible fingertips, and the starry night cherry blossoms on the side opened her mouth slightly, and she picked up the chopsticks on the table, but her fingers, which were originally very coordinated, did not obey the call at this moment, and fell to the ground with a crisp sound after two turns.

Passing by behind him, Ayton quickly pulled the chopsticks from Ariel's hand and tapped twice on his head: "Don't turn around, what's so much about this"

Ariel hugged her head and turned her head and said aggrievedly: "It's boring to sit, I have nothing to play with, so I have to turn my chopsticks..."

"If you want to turn around, I'll give you the whole butterfly knife another day, so that you can turn it all at once" Ayton walked towards the starry night without looking back, and the latter blushed and handed him the chopsticks he had just picked up.

"Butterfly Dao, what's that?" Ariel tilted her head at him.

"A short-handled weapon, the kind that can be thrown around in the hand. ”

The girl's eyes lit up: "Okay, good." ”

"Starry Night, we're next door at night, come to us if there's anything you want" Ayton folded the clean plates that Ariel had licked, put away the dishes, and walked in the direction of the kitchen.

"Big Brother Ayton..."

Ayton turned his head halfway, "What's wrong?"

"You... Do you sleep in the same room?" Starry Night's cheeks reddened even more.

"Uh... Well, Ariel, come on," Ayton said, sneaking into the kitchen as if he were running away, cleaning the dishes for the night.

"Really, what's so embarrassing to say this, it's so thin-skinned," Ariel muttered in a low voice, which happened to fall into Starry Night's ears, who turned her head abruptly and asked cautiously.

"Sister Ariel, what is the relationship between you and Big Brother Ayton?"

Ariel glanced at her, "What do you say?"

......

"Young Master Babbitt, with all due respect, the strength of those two young people is really not easy to mess with, and they have the support of nobles behind them"

The leader of the 'Black Fingers', Black Hand, has a burly body as strong as a black bear, but his face is extremely ugly.

The first heir of the Babbitt family sitting in a chair, Gülen looked impatient, "Hmph, I know, my brother also had a dispute with them, and by the way, all three of your subordinates are folded in their hands, right?"

The black hand frowned slightly, and nodded cautiously: "Yes." ”

"That's not it, tonight's night attack, new and old grudges are counted together, but you are also a mixed figure in this southern district."

"Young Master, it's a member of the Saifu family..."

"What are you afraid of? Isn't he just a messenger who delivers letters, and really thinks that he can do whatever he wants if he is appreciated by King Fürth? If he hadn't been lucky before, he wouldn't know where he died now. Gülen made no secret of the disdain in his eyes.

"......" The black hand hesitated in his heart, and the men next to him were silent one by one, not to mention whether the night attack could be successful, even if it was successful, when the Saifu family tracked it down, the people of the Babbitt family would definitely be fine, but it was difficult to guarantee that their black fingers had become scapegoats again.

Glenn saw the concerns in their hearts, his face turned ruthless, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the black hand: "Don't worry, I will keep you safe this time, even if that Claire tracks it down, our Babbitt family is not easy to mess with!"

"But..."

"Moreover, it's not just our family, hmph, even if they are stupid, they have provoked the top forces of Huangyao, and when the time comes, the Saifu family may still want to get rid of their relationship with them, and they won't dare to let go of a fart."

The second sentence made the black hand move slightly, among the nobles of Huangyao, there are only four who can be called the top forces, and that is the four dukes of Yaolan!

The rest of the forces can be roughly divided into three categories, and the first-class forces refer to the eight marquis of Huangyao, such as the Marquis of Carlyle's family behind the obsidian Chamber of Commerce.

Earl families such as the Babbitt family and the Saifu family, which had not been successful for a long time, only belonged to second-rate forces, and finally some nobles such as barons and viscounts who had only one village or small town in their territory and no fiefdom belonged to third-rate forces.

In Brilliant City, there will inevitably be big or small disputes between each faction, but no one will lead the war openly, and every time he will send his subordinate forces, such as Grover hinting at the Babbitt family, Glenn will then instruct Blackfinger to contact.

In this way, you can avoid the embarrassment caused by underestimating the strength of the other party, and you can clear up the relationship by the way.

If what Young Master Gülen said in front of him is true, then the black finger can put his mind at ease and do a big job, if he is lucky, he will get the top power in his mouth, the attention of a certain duke family, and he will leap to the sky, and he will not dare to imagine the days to come.

"But..."Gülen's voice suddenly became heavy, "tonight, you must only say that you want to do it yourself, and don't talk about anyone, otherwise... If you upset that adult, I'm afraid that even I won't be able to protect you this time. ”

The black hand hurriedly patted his chest hard and reassured: "Don't worry, Young Master Gülen, we have always done things cleanly with our black fingers. ”

"That's good" Gülen's face softened slightly, and said: "Remember, those two people seem to be young, but they still have some strength, don't let them run away, hear clearly!"

"Haha, please rest assured this young master, plus Lou Lou below, there are more than a hundred of us black fingers, unless the two of them have wings behind their backs, otherwise, I will personally tie those two people in front of the young master"

"Also, that adult specially ordered that there is a silver-haired and red-eyed girl in their family, and she must be caught alive, and not a single hair is missing!"

The corners of the black hand's mouth hooked: "Obey, young master..."

......

In the hot bathroom, a wisp of girl sits on her knees and soaks in the bathtub, only the head and jade knees are exposed to the water, and the waterfall-like silver filaments float in the bathtub like catkins, and the misty water vapor covers the snow-white jade delicate body.

Just as I was enjoying the starry night of bathing, I opened my eyes faintly and looked at the reflection in the clear water, and the two red pupils were clearly visible.

Suddenly, there was a slight sound of the door opening.

"Ahh

"It's me..."

"Ai... Sister Ariel, why are you here?" Starry Night carefully poked her head out of the water, her eyes cautiously swept behind her, empty, and the tense heartstrings relaxed slightly.

"This is my house, why can't I come" Ariel walked in angrily and closed the bathroom door with her backhand. With his back to the panicked girl, his hands quickly unbuttoned, and the close-fitting black leather coat and leather pants quickly slid down the graceful curve, revealing the girl's delicate body.

Starry Night screamed in fear, no longer looked at the seductive snow-white delicate body, and retracted his head under the water again, his little heart fluttering and beating.

The sound of splashing water stirred up, and Ariel soaked in the bathtub, removing the headbands from her temples and letting her jet-black hair float freely in the water, her delicate collarbones dripping with water, reflecting a little fluorescent light through the bright magic lamp on the table.

"Sister Ariel..."Starry Night's delicate cheeks are like ripe apples, and the red pupils are faintly shining, and I don't know if it's fog or light.

"What's wrong, if it weren't for my brother saying that the hot water wasn't enough, I wouldn't want to wash with you," Ariel looked like she was grinning, but she actually had a blush on her neck.

“......”

The atmosphere calmed down, only the sound of the girl's gentle water fluctuation...

After a while, Starry Night spoke softly, and there was some hesitation in her expression: "Sister Ariel..."

"What's the matter? just say, don't stumble, don't worry, my brother told me not to bully you, I will try to pay attention."

“... You guys... Aren't you afraid of my appearance?" After speaking, Starry Night slowly lowered her eyes, her eyelashes as thin as cicada wings trembled slightly

"Afraid?" Ariel looked at her suspiciously, tilting her head and said, "Are you saying that my brother and I are afraid of your appearance like a dark elf?"

"No, I... I didn't mean that," a hint of panic flashed in the girl's eyes, and her body sank slightly.

Ariel Ni stared at the starry night, and a disdainful voice came out of her mouth, "Hmph, don't say it's a half-elf like you, even if the real dark elves come, we won't be afraid, those humans are afraid of us, no, afraid of our dark elves... Fear of the dark elves!

Starry Night: "......"

"Don't you think... I'm ugly... Isn't it weird?" the girl looked down again, quietly looking at the reflection in the water.

Although it is not the violet skin color of the dark elves, but the red-eyed and silver-haired, no matter who it is, it will be associated with the dark elves, such as the dwarf forger Qili who met today, such as the passers-by on the street, everyone will cast a strange look when they look at her for the first time.

Once, when a young child saw the starry night, he immediately hugged his mother in fear and said... Mom, is that the Dark Elf?

I used to hide in a remote mountain village with my mother, and I didn't feel anything, but when I came to the world, every time I was treated specially, I made Xingye feel that I was out of place with others, and it deeply pierced my young heart.

"Ugly ???," Ariel suddenly screamed, as if she had heard the most incredible joke in the world.

"Oh, do you think you look ugly, or do you think the color of your eyes and hair is not good? If it's the latter, then do you think all the dark elves are ugly, let me tell you, I hate people calling me ugly the most, cough cough, anyway, my brother says I'm beautiful, don't care what others say, who dares to scold you to your face, see if I don't smoke him to death!"

"???" Starry Night is full of question marks again...
